Since you want cost to come together with features and reliability, I'll assume Beaulieus, stock or rebuilt, are out. I'd say it hard to do better than the various iterations of Canon 814 and 1014. For something cheaper than that, you might look at a Sankyo, but I think they're not quite as reliable as the Canons. Minoltas don't have much in the way of features, but they should work pretty well...
My thoughts are largely based on now distant recollections, I'm sure other folks will have recs about cameras they're using right now, which means they've held up quite some time past their dates of manufacture and expected life of service. Good luck. _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
